<p>List of architectures to generate device code for.</p>
<p>An architecture can be suffixed by either <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-real</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-virtual</span></code> to specify
the kind of architecture to generate code for.
If no suffix is given then code is generated for both real and virtual
architectures.</p>
<p>A non-empty false value (e.g. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OFF</span></code>) disables adding architectures.
This is intended to support packagers and rare cases where full control
over the passed flags is required.</p>
<p>This property is initialized by the value of the <span class="target" id="index-0-variable:CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../variable/CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES.html#variable:CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES" title="CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES"><code class="xref cmake cmake-variable docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES</span></code></a>
variable if it is set when a target is created.</p>
<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CUDA_ARCHITECTURES</span></code> target property must be set to a non-empty value on targets
that compile CUDA sources, or it is an error.
